In the 1940’s, a grotto was built on the moderate rise immediately north of Spring Creek, in view of the old Galong Castle. An annual procession in honour of the Mother of God, which had been held in the Galong Monastery grounds since the early 1930’s, was re-routed to the grotto. On the first Sunday of each May, many people come from far and wide to assemble for this annual event. . Old Rosary Hill looks down maternally as it folds the smaller rise and the greater throng in her ample embrace!
